The cybersecurity world is fast-paced, high-pressure, and relentless. But what happens when the stress, burnout, and anxiety take a toll on the very people working to keep us safe? In this powerful episode of InfoSec to Insanity, we’re pulling back the curtain—or, in this case, the hoodie—to talk about a critical issue that’s too often overlooked: mental health in the InfoSec industry.

Special Guest: Steve Shelton, CEO of Green Shoe Consulting

Join Evan Francen, a 30+ year veteran of cybersecurity, and Matt Goodacre, a Marine Corps veteran and information security leader, as they dive into the struggles, triumphs, and untold stories from the frontlines of InfoSec.
